A few people have asked about how McKenna is doing so I thought I would take a minute to give an update. I guess the short answer is we really don't know how she is doing. Her limp is not as pronounced as it used to be but she is still very uncoordinated and seems to fall for no reason ALL the time. So I'm not sure what is better, limping or falling. We are waiting to see a neuromuscular specialist and in the meantime her physical therapist is considering fitting her with leg braces to help stabilize her gait. I dread the thought of trying to get my stubborn little peanut to wear any type of brace. The ONLY way we will be able to pull it off is if she thinks they are some kind of fancy shoes.
Do they make orthopaedic devices in zebra print??

Yes, I'm sure they do! I had a boy in my class with fish printed braces that went went into his shoes up to his knees.
They do make braces with all kinds of fun colors and all kinds of fun designs on the straps. She might enjoy them if she gets to pick it all out!
Big sisters are the best!! :-D
